Kelvin Fletcher has reportedly been replaced on Dancing on Ice by magician Ben Hanlin, after ditching the show for Strictly Come Dancing.
The Emmerdale star left Strictly audiences stunned last night with his incredible first performance with Oti Mabuse, after jumping in to the series at the eleventh hour to replace an injured Jamie Laing.
But his inclusion in the show has allegedly meant him giving up his spot on the ice-skating ITV rival, and so Ben Hanlin, who appeared on magic series Tricked, is stepping up.
He fronted three series of ITV2s Tricked but he hasnt been on telly for a while now, a source told The Sun. To say hes excited is an understatement. He cant wait to bring some magic to the show.
Metro.co.uk has contacted Dancing On Ice reps for comment.
